Just a Reject || c.h.

2.0

A full week passed by uneventful, my existence once again unacknowledged by Calum, not a single word spoken between the two of us. However, on Instagram, a few likes were left behind on some of my old posts.

But, on Thursday, at exactly 3:17 PM, I received a notification from Instagram. I checked my phone, and instantly smiled. "Holy shit." I mumbled. "HOLY SHIT!"

"calumhood has sent you a photo."

I quickly unlocked my phone, opening the DM. I gripped my phone anxiously as my heart raced. My smile widened as I read the message.

calumhood: So I heard your into bands.

I giggled a bit as my fingers danced above the phone's keyboard, my heart still racing. My fingers typed back quickly.

avas.wonderland: You're* But yes, I do like a few bands.

How did he know about my obsession with bands?

I glanced down at my shirt. "I like bands" was printed across my shirt. He probably figured it out from my shirt. Probably.

My phone screen lit up again, notifying me that he responded.

calumhood: my friends and I are actually have a band.

avas.wonderland: Oh really? Nice.

I felt lame as I typed, since I didn't really know what exactly to say. I didn't want to give off weird vibes or anything, so, I kept my answer short and simple.

We messaged back and forth the rest of the night.

calumhood: it's a work in progress, but it's coming together
avas.wonderland: what do you play?
calumhood: bass, actually
calumhood: so hopefully you're into bassists :)
avas.wonderland: I'll bet your girlfriend wouldn't like it if i did
calumhood: what girlfriend?
calumhood: I don't have a girlfriend (:
avas.wonderland: yeah right, you have girls throwing themselves at you constantly.
calumhood: no, really. There's this one girl I've been crushing on for a while, though.
avas.wonderland: oh? How sweet. Is she someone in our school?
calumhood: oh god. Not the guessing game.
avas.wonderland: oh yes, hood. The guessing game.
calumhood: ugh. This feels like middle school.
avas.wonderland: stop avoiding the question and answer me ):
calumhood: ugh. Yes she's in our school.
avas.wonderland: PERRY?
calumhood: lol no she's just a friend.
avas.wonderland: give me a hint
calumhood: okay well she's really cute.
avas.wonderland: how would I know who's cute to you?
calumhood: check in the mirror :)
calumhood: I'll see you tomorrow at school. Night Ava x

I put my phone on the side of my bed, smiling. Did he just- he did. A little voice in my head answered.

Would he even remember talking to me when we got to school? Maybe he was just high tonight or something? Doubts ran through my head.

Slowly, I drifted off to sleep as I thought more and more about the mysterious Calum Hood.
